I expected responses like yes he is probably too big or something similar- I was not prepared to be chastized and lectured for trying to do the right thing. |
How can a "perfect" dog be an "unhealthy, unhappy" dog? You have much learning and reading to do. And don't take that as an attack, that is a fact.
